Longboat Key, Florida
Compliments of RVA, Beach Castle Resort expands from the bayside of Longboat Key to the Gulf – providing a place to launch your kayak and cast a line, a chance to spot exotic birds that stop here for our mild temperatures and to view a picture-perfect sunset over the Gulf of Mexico -- all courtesy of Mother Nature.
The grounds here are impeccable – from the well-manicured vegetation to the vast palm trees that dot this serene Longboat Key location. The buildings at Beach Castle are the color of sunshine and are accented by Bahama shutters and railings that resemble palm trees. Each unit is individually owned, which means no unit is alike and provides a unique vacation experience to our guests. However, all units provide a full kitchen, living room and private lanais – never compromising the comforts of home.
This secluded hideaway exudes a classic charm that, as vacationers, we yearn for. A place to get away from it all, relish in the Florida sunshine and reconnect with family and friends; all this while enjoying white-sand beaches, privacy and most importantly, vacation memories that last a lifetime.

I had a nice stay during the off season, despite some noisy people. I wouldn't want to stay when they are packed full, since parking is tight and tricky.
This unit has been recently updated and is the cleanest condo I have ever stayed in. The entire complex is clean and quiet. Management very friendly. Great location on LBK.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: An easy process from start to finish! Booking online was a breeze and I loved that you could book shorter stays. Our flight was delayed so we didn't make it in time to check-in in-person, which was no problem bc everything was there waiting for us when we did get there. Our condo was clean and full of extra blankets (which was great bc the weather was chilly. It was a great location and easy to stay on the Key or go up to Cortez/Bradenton or down to Sarasota. Unfortunately, it was a bit chilly to hang out at the beach, but the morning trip tp the beach showed a great beach area! We had a great experience and will likely be back in the future!
Good Location, close to beach, restaurants, walking distance or biking. Nice pool and hot tub. Condo was clean but could use a little TLC Air conditioner went out, so it was very hot, screen broken in bedroom. understand this is not their fault, but was a pain to unpack, and pack again. Property managers were very nice!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My stay at Beach Castle Resort #26 was cozy and perfect for me. I enjoyed the sunrise and bay view from the screened in deck each morning, and short walk across the street to the beach and sunsets each day/evening. The condo was clean and well maintained. I enjoyed the guest membership at Cedars resort, and rode a bike each day. The only negative thing was that the screen was missing from the bedroom window, so I wasn't able to keep the window open. This should be replaced. Besides that, my stay was perfect!
Stayed beach side for many years. Enjoyed our bayside view this trip
Beautiful place, nice grounds - unfortunately it was too cold during our visit to really enjoy the pool, dock, or beach - so we need to come back. During our stay the water heater went out - management was quick to respond and get the issue resolved.
It was a perfect location for us. We had a wedding at the resort at longboat key just 10 minutes down the road. Checkin process was easy, parking right in front of the condo was super convenient. The condo was very clean upon arrival and it was very quiet the two nights we stayed. The kitchen is fully equipped and the view of the water was special. The shower was great and the bed very comfortable. The screened in porch was perfect for morning breakfast and watching the sunset. The slider doors leading to the porch were open most of the time we were there. Should we return to that area, we will definitely stay here again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were supposed to go to Captiva, and last minute needed to find somewhere else for 2 of us adults due to Hurricane Ian. The furniture, including bed, was very comfortable, and the location being away from the Gulf of Mexico Drive was quiet. We would not have wanted to be close to the main road, as it is very busy. The grill worked great. The private beach was super nice with chairs and lounge chairs provided, but unfortunately the weather was a little chilly and we had rain during our short stay and weren't able to spend much time there. The laundry facilities were nice, even though not in the unit, and were not far, free of charge. The condo was clean, however when we arrived, the place smelled very strongly of a humid, cleanser/lysol-type smell. Was thankful it was cleanser, and after a few hours, the smell dissipated and wasn't covering up something. Be prepared to drive most places. The condo had nice appliances. The TV was a little hard to figure out with the remotes, and we thought it would be nice to have a little more explanation of how to use it, but we ended up figuring it out after the 2nd night.
Very nice place to relax. Loved the area. Coming back next year!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The office was very professional upon check-in and we had no issues and only had a great time while there. The unit is very comfortable. The kitchen is spacious and very equipped with utensils, soap, rags, pots and pans, bowls big and small, a blender, toaster, coffee machine,..etc. Although the bedroom window was under construction, it was not an issue since it was behind the curtains. It was great that we had chairs and umbrellas accessible right by the beach. I think there are a couple of improvements I would recommend, it would be nice to have keyless entry to the unit and an upgrade to the grilling area. The grilling area is a tight space with very little shade for groups. Last but not least, bring extra TP, we were only there for 3 nights and a small family but the one TP roll provided is a mini roll and runs out quick. Overall, very pleasant stay and would highly recommend it to everyone.
